[Pre-Chorus]
Huh, you lied to me, huh
I lied to you, huh
You told me things, huh
I said, "We're through"
But, please, don't ever forgive me like you did
'Cause I've been hearin' voices in my head
Now you layin' under covers in my bed
And all this undercover makes a mess
[Chorus]
'Cause we've been livin' in a teenage dream with teenage things
I can't even figure out what teenage means
Just 'cause we got energy, we're enemies
Livin' like we're young adults, just let us be
Yeah, yeah
[Post-Chorus]
You lied to me, yuh (You lied)
I lied to you, huh, yuh (I lied to you)
You told me things, whoa (Told me things)
I said them, too
[Verse 1]
Everything I gave to you, I gave to you
You thought that you played me, but I played you, too
How the fuck could I let me get close to you?
You really thought you would win? You're meant to lose, baby
[Pre-Chours]
But, please, don't ever forgive me like you did (I)
'Cause I've been hearin' voices in my head (I've been livin' lies)
Now you layin' under covers in my bed (Shawty gotta do it right)
And all this undercover makes a mess (I thought that you were mine)
[Chorus]
'Cause we've been livin' in a teenage dream with teenage things
I can't even figure out what teenage means
Just 'cause we got energy, we're enemies
Livin' like we're young adults, just let us be
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 2]
Let me be, like you're my enemy
You say you love me but I don't feel that energy
And you was into me, but somewhere in between
I knew it wouldn't work out, we weren't meant to be
[Pre-Chorus]
You lied to me, huh
I lied to you, huh
You told me things, huh
I said, "We're through"
But, please, don't ever forgive me like you did
'Cause I've been hearin' voices in my head
Now you layin' under covers in my bed
And all this undercover makes a mess
[Chorus]
'Cause we've been livin' in a teenage dream with teenage things
I can't even figure out what teenage means
Just 'cause we got energy, we're enemies
Livin' like we're young adults, just let us be
Yeah, yeah
[Outro]
Huh, uh
You lied to me, huh
I lied to you, huh
You told me things, huh
I said, "We're through"
But, please, don't ever forgive me like you did
'Cause I've been hearin' voices in my head
Now you layin' under covers in my bed
And all this undercover makes a mess
